Before you use the IMS™ TM resource
adapter, you
must first determine the version of the IMS TM resource
adapter and
the development environment you need to use.
Procedure
- Determine which version of the IMS TM resource
adapter you
want to use. The version of the IMS TM resource
adapter that
you use depends on whether you need the new features that are added
to IMS TM Resource
Adapter and
the version of your IMS.
- Determine which integrated development environment (IDE)
you will use.
- If you plan to deploy the IMS TM resource
adapter to an
application server other than IBM®
WebSphere Application Server, including WebSphere
Liberty servers, International Components for Unicode
(ICU) Version 4.4.2 or later is required. This component is included in a special runtime package
for WebSphere
Liberty servers on the IMS TM resource
adapter download site.
- Review the potential migration
issues and decide if the issues apply to you.
- Download the runtime component for the version that you
choose. The runtime component is available for downloads
from the IMS TM resource
adapter download site. It is also available for installation
on z/OS® by using SMP/E.
- If you are upgrading from an older version of the IMS TM resource
adapter, follow
the steps in Installing IMS TM resource adapter service and updates.
